I'm not making any specific prediction, but since nearly every sports "miracle" that I know of has benefited a New York team, don't be surprised if the New York Football Giants end the undefeated season of the Patriots.

As if Milledge wasn't enough, now this piece of human excrement. Dukes makes Milledge look like a choir boy. It's funny, Dukes too, is described in the Post as "troubled." I guess troubled means criminal.

Saw this kid play for the first time today vs. Kentucky, and was impressed. Hits the hole well, takes hits, keeps on moving. Certainly looks like he has NFL ability, but I wonder if he'll even get a sniff of the ball at "the next level."

Only if he were gay.

Wow! First off, irresponsible remark? Why? I'm not allowed an opinion? Completely off topic? Perhaps, and if true, I apologize. But the topic starter, bigunreal stated he didn't know why Rose isn't in the Hall. That pushed one of my favorite argument buttons. Contrary to what you believe...

To me, Pete Rose is the most over-rated baseball player, ever. He was nothing but a singles hitter, who accumulated his number of hits because of the huge number of at-bats that he had in his career. If he had played his entire career as a second baseman, I maybe would say he was a hall of...

I had been aware of the 90% to 10% ratio of these crimes for several years, having read about it in the Washington Post. I remember having almost fallen off my chair -- not becaues of the 90% figure (which I expected) -- but because I was reading about it in the Washington Post!

Like Solomon Kane, I'm sounding obsessed by this, too, but it boils my blood! In Friday's Washington Post, the article they ran on the tournament contained 16 paragraphs. 13 of the paragraphs were about Wie, who barely even made the cut! If and when this girl ever wins a tournament, the LPGA...

Turned on the Golf Channel coverage of the LPGA Championship today, and who do you think was the first golfer to be shown? Could it have been one of the four players tied for first place, at -5? Maybe the two most talented young white girls, Paula Creamer or Morgan Pressel, both under par? No...

Was there any mention of how this injury was incurred, or is it just possible that this was a ready-to-use excuse? I'm wondering, because just last week I read that Ms. Wie had plans to enter another men's event coming up shortly. And BTW, has anyone noticed that the women's rankings are barely...

What is interesting to me, after these kids were found to be innoncent, the only one of many culprits to receive any blame at all from our friendly media, is the D.A. The REAL push to prosecute them came from the local "African-American" community (with able assistance from everyone's two...

I wasn't aware of the leader of the tournament, as my local sports outlet led their coverage off with the only real story, Eldrick Woods shooting a fourth round 67, which I gather brought him within 10 shots or so of the lead. I don't know anything else, because I turned the TV off immediatly.

While waiting to get a haircut, I picked up a copy of this rag (against my better judgement) dated 4/23. It contained yet another article about the "crisis" of the "disappearing" black player in MLB. Addmitedly, I didn't read the whole thing, especially becuse several current players (of the...

I'd hardly call one of the top goal-scoring defensemen in the NHL an enforcer and on-ice troublemaker.

I know one thing for sure, the media is in mourning today, as St. Eldrick didn't win. Did anyone notice after the first round was over that ESPN ran in the corner of the screen on their crawler, that Tiger was +3? Not who was leading after the round, just what "Tiger" had done. In one of our...
